Hi, I'm from Poland and I want present my rebuild project of Volkswagen Santana.
Auto in our possession for 10 years. Previously my father used him. I am the 4th owner, I have complete the documentation with the service book. The car has never failed us he driven to the end but the thresholds are rust-eaten. The father decided to change the auto. I take over the car and I decided to rebuild. In 2007, in May was the last time I went to review. Upon returning I began to disassemble and prepare for repairing the car body.Preparing for painting with undercoat. I finished te work in September. Next I began work in February I take out the engine. In May, it is time to painting. I wanted a color that was seen from afar and has been recognized. I found the green from the palette VW, this is a Lupo color. When I had already painted i changed all suspension and even the rubber frame engine. After the suspension, it is time for the engine. Therefore, the working to the end it was fine. I changed all the gaskets and seals with the head gasket. When the engine was fine i attend to inside.
Auto run is already made but have yet to be done:
- pholstery and seat-back sofas,
- carburettor change for monopoint injection
- buy rims
- refinement reduced the suspension.
